SUMMARY:The Need for Roots in a Digital Society | Catherine D’Ignazio
DESCRIPTION:On November 6\, Boston University’s Center for Media Innovatio
 n & Social Impact hosts its second Annual Summit. The day-long event will
  feature speakers\, workshops\, and panel discussions across disciplines 
 and between city\, university\, and community members to investigate the 
 pressing issues related to attention\, ecology\, community\, and trust.\n
 \nMIT DUSP Professor Catherine D'Ignazio will be participating as a panel
 ist during the following session on justice in the age of AI:\n\nAI syste
 ms increasingly guide decisions that play out in local contexts: who gets
  flagged as a risk\, whose neighborhood gets patrolled or invested in\, w
 hose voice counts in a dispute. The criminal justice system is one promin
 ent example\, but the pattern recurs across many domains where data built
  and trained far from a community ends up shaping outcomes within it. Thi
 s panel explores what it means to build systems that are answerable to th
 e communities most affected by them.\n\nPanelists will consider what norm
 ative questions about fairness and accountability get decided\, often inv
 isibly\, in technical design choices\; and how local\, community rooted a
 pproaches to justice can push back against technologies built at scale an
 d at a distance. Ultimately\, the question is: in the formal and informal
  spaces of public life\, whose knowledge counts\, and who gets to decide?
